Excerpt from Oration: Delivered in the Congregational Church, Sacramento, California, July 4, 1857 As in our wide-extended domain, there are found all descriptions of scenery, every character of soil, climate and productions, as well as Specimens of the various races and mixtures of the human kind - so has our prolific land given birth to innumerable shades of Opin ions, and vast varieties of parties, faiths, creeds, philosophies, abstract theories and crude, ill-digested and erroneous ideas about forms of government and the rights of man. To partially expose the fallacious promises and unsound arguments entertained by many with reference to these latter questions, is the task I have chosen to perform this day. It is peculiarly appropriate. I have only to regret my inability to handle it as its importance de mands. What I shall now say, is but the advance of certain propo sitions, which at a future time, will, with a variety of cognate ques tions, be more fully elucidated.
